Parkinson’s Disease is Helped by Upper Cervical Chiropractic
Dr. Justin Brown and Dr. Jonathan Chung, in the Journal of Upper Cervical Chiropractic Research (March 2011 edition), speak about a patient from their clinic that was showing symptoms of Parkinson’s disease and the amazing results she had following a correction of the bones in her upper neck that were misaligned.
This is called the Atlas Subluxation Complex Syndrome utilizing the Upper Cervical Procedure.
This female patient was sixty-seven years old.She was complaining of tremors, weakness, rigidity due to Parkinson’s disease (PD), and scoliosis. She stated that she had been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease shortly after she began showing symptoms some five years earlier. She reported that she was falling on a daily basis due to balance issues.She was unable to work due to the severity of her symptoms. She struggled with day to day activities. She was treated during a six-month period.Here are her results :30% improvement in rigidity60% improvement in tremors60% improvement in weakness70% improvement in mobility.She also reported a significant decrease in the number of times she fell and had much improvement in her ability to perform daily activities, which included her ability to work.
There have been numerous studies done on brain stem atrophy and misalignment in people with advanced Parkinson’s disease. One such study, by Jubault et al., states that this brain stem atrophy may be the first identifiable stage of neurodegeneration in patients with Parkinson’s. They say that this may be responsible for many of the various symptoms of patients with Parkinson’s disease. According to new research done by an upright MRI, upper neck misalignment can change the function of the brain by changing CFS and blood flow to the brain.
Atlas subluxation complex can only be corrected through specific upper neck adjustments by a specially trained upper cervical chiropractor, such as Dr. Armen Manoucherian of Glendale, California. These types of problems cannot be corrected by general chiropractic manipulation.
An upper neck evaluation should be performed to see if an undetected brain stem injury could be the root cause of Parkinson’s for you or someone you love.

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death in the United States. For years, dietary cholesterol was implicated in increasing blood cholesterol levels leading to the elevated risk of CVD. To date, extensive research did not show evidence to support a role of dietary cholesterol in the development of CVD. As a result, the 2015–2020 Dietary Guidelines for Americans removed the recommendations of restricting dietary cholesterol to 300 mg/day. This review summarizes the current literature regarding dietary cholesterol intake ...

At the very least, you'll want to keep this to a minimum. Inflammation is often visible—think red skin or a swollen knee. However, inflammation can also occur on the inside, and it's not always so easy to detect. "Inflammation is a physiological process involved in the defense of our body and the repair of tissues," says Jenna Stangland, RD , a Momentous advisor. Stangland explains that inflammation can be triggered by infections, trauma, toxins or allergic reactions. Sometimes, it becomes chronic in the muscles and tissues. Unfortunately, Stangland says chronic inflammation carries risks. "Chronic inflammation can end up stimulating the development of cardiovascular diseases, autoimmune disease, neurological disease or cancer," Stangland says. "This type of inflammation can last several months as a result of inability to combat and reduce it." Diet isn't a cure-all for chronic inflammation or the diseases it can trigger. However, it's an important tool. "Diet plays a significant role in inflammation, as certain foods can either promote or reduce inflammation in the body," says Michelle Routhenstein, MS, RD, CDCES, CDN , a preventive cardiology dietitian at EntirelyNourished.com . One food in particular is worth avoiding. RDs shared the food to limit if you have chronic inflammation.
